The DISCLOSURE.

To preserve his disguise, Joseph had con-
versed with his brethren through an inter
prefer. He understood their conversation
among themselves, and had been deeply
moved by what he had heard them say re-
specting their treatment of himself. Their
guilty conscience had interpreted his appa-
rent suspicion and harsh treatment of them
"a retribution for the sin they had committed
against their brother, whom they had thought
to kill, but whom they had sold for a slave,
and their father whom they had deceived and
made to believe that his favorite son had been
devoured by wild beast They were greatly
distressed by their 81 uation and the memory
of their guilt, which they supposed to be the
cause of all their trouble xiii. 21-24). Jo-
seph's heart had been touched by this dis
closure of his brothers feelings, and when
Judah made his pathetic appeal for the re-
lease of Benjamin, on behalf of their father
now stricken in years and bereft, as he would
be, of his loved wife and both of her children,
and freely offering himself a ransom for
the condemned and enslaved boy, he was no
longer able to restrain his feelings, and to
maintain his disguise, and was obliged to de-
clare himself to his brethren. He sent all
the Egyptian attendants away from their
presence that the disclosure might be private.
He was so overcome by his feelings that his
loud weeping was heard by the Egyptians
outside, or at a distance, and reported to the
royal family. Though no had been informed
at first that Jacob was still living, and again
in the touching appeal of Judah, yet with
anxious, filiaI affection Joseph inquiries of
his brethren, to whom he has revealed him
self, "Is my father still alive?" But they
were so smitten in their consciences that
from establishment and terror they were
dumb in his presence. Nowonder they were
amazed and affrighled The boy whom they
had despised and in anger and for profit had
sent into foreign slavery, now stood before
them, the lordly ruler of great nation, sec
ond only to the king himself. The boyish
dreams which had so enraged them against
him had been realized. They had already
humbled themselves before him and bad ex
perienced his authority over them. What
might they not now expect from himl But 10
seph was not nov as they had been. Whatever

may have been his feelings before, Joseph is
now kindly disposed toward his brethren.
While Joseph was concealiDg his real identi-
ty from them, they had been revealing their
Utmost feelings, disposition and character
unto him, who had been overcome by their
sorrowful penitence and their manifest fra
ternal and flial affection and fidelity. He
had declared himself to be the brother whom
they had wron ged; he will now manifest his
disposition toward them to quiet their fears
and win their confidence. He will return
good for evil. He had already been good to
them, both in his generosity and in the in
tent of his strange treatment of them and its
results. They had not been able to under
stand the menifest kindness of the strange
ruler, and il may not be easier for them to
understand the proffered kindness of the
wronged brother.
Joseph encouraged his brethren to enter
into conversation with him by inviting them
to come into his immediate presence. He
told them that he was indeed their brother
whom they had sold into Egypt. but that Con
had been with him, and that the event had
proved a means of great prosperity for him,
and that he might thus become a means of
great blessing to his family. Having heartily
repented of their evil deed, Joseph would
make them feel that they would receive good
and not evil from him; and exhorted them not
to grieve or longer reproach themselves for
what COP had overruled for good. The mag
nanimity of Joseph is manifest 10 his en-
deavor to remove the fears and pacify the
feelings of his remorseful brethren. They
were unable to see the hand of COP anywhere
in the sad story, save in the merited retribu-
ton that had overtaken them. Joseph was
able to trace the Divine providence in what
had SO clearly been the means of his pro-
motion, and in the prospect of becoming
greater blessing to bis father.
While Joseph recognized the Providence
which had raise him to position of luxury
and power he must certainly have remem-
b, red the malice which had intended more
than the hardship that he had endured for
thirteen years, though that hardship was the
necessary road TO prosperity. They meant
it for evil" and common men would have
dealt with them according to their meaning
evil for evil. Bot Joseph was no common
man; and he proceeded to Overcome evil
with good. "-Reu. G. l.. DemareSt, D. u.

It is recommended that each church

lessons, the class to be made up of Sun

classes have been formed, and the re.

Now, do we not all feel the need OF
the help these lessons can afford us? Is
it not important that the Sunday school

before one is considered qualified to teach
the common branches in our public
schools, and then reflect that the moral

have never seriously thought of the grand
truths set forth in the Scriptures, or if
they recognize and appreciate these them
selves, have never made it a study how
most perfectly to present these truths to
the young.
Does it not require careful preparation
to enable one to set forth in clear and
convincing terms the truth as contained
in the Bible?
Ought we not to think soberly of these
matters; endeavor to feel the RESPONSE
bility resting upon us as teachers of the
young? And ought we not to strive by
patient study and careful thought to fit
oursely es more completely Tor our work?
For at best it's but little we can do.

OHIO SUNDAY-SCH00L NORMAL
WORK.

Attention is hereby called to the Sun
day-school Normal work under the direc-
ton of the Ohio Universalist Sunday
school Convention.
Realizing the Importance to our church
of Sunday school work; knowing that the
future success of our church must be
placed largely in the hands of the young
who are now receiving their religious
training within its walls; and feeling
more deeply still the sacredness of our
duty to the young, whose moral and
spiritual training has been entrusted to
US, our Convention set itself about the
task of determining in what way it could
best place helps within the reach of its
Sunday. school teachers to ensure more
efficient and thorough instruction to
those placed under their charge.
Careful study was given to the ques-
ton; methods employed by other demon
nations were examined, successful Sun
day school workers were interviewed, and
after the matter had been thoroughly can
vassed this recommendation was made:
That a two years. course Of study be
mapped out With special reference to the
needs of teachers; that this course should
comprise systematic study Of the Bible
together with careful consideration of
the purposes Of the Sunday school and
the most effective means of accomplish.
ing these purposes.
This recommendation is being acted
upon. The work of planning and ar
ranging the lessons has been put into
competent hands, and has been carried
on as rapidly as possible, though this has
not been as fast as could have been
wished since it is volunteer work and has
to be performed in addition to the many
duties of the active minister.
One whole years work, twelve lesson
has already been put out, and the editors
have completed their plans for the Sec
ond year of the course. The topics Of
the lessons already issued are these:
Bible Section.-Lesson No. l. What is
the Bible? No. 2, Language Versions,
Manuscripts, Books and Authors of the

Sunday-schooI Section. Topics: What

ing the Lesson; Method of INSTRUCTION
(0 approach, (b) attention.
The second years work will complet,
the New Testament studies, and take II,
church history and the history of doc
trines, including a brief history of on
own sect.
These lessons have been highly spokel
of by those who edit similar lessons TO
the Chautauqua Sunday-school Norma

! all who have studied them.

Beware of ScrohsIa

Scrofula is probably more general than any
other disease. 1t is insidious in character,
and manifests itself in running sores, pustular
eruptions, boils, swellings, enlarged joints,
assesses, sore eyes, etc. Hoods Sarsaparilla
expels all trace of scrofula from the blood,
leaving it pure, enriched, and healthy.

over year had two running sores on my neck.
